Through the wild age

Chapter 25 Life...

Living in Arrow City is not difficult, but if you want to make a huge difference in price through speculation, so as to spend recklessly and live a life of luxury and lust, it is impossible.In this city, the most difficult people to live in are those businessmen who buy and sell.

It is said that the original occupant of their house, that is, the rice merchant, violated this taboo, which finally led to the family being expelled from Airo City.

With the lessons learned from the past, Chen Qiao didn't dare to think about it anymore. After gradually understanding the things in this city, Chen Qiao felt that the price of his few pearls was really not low. These merchants here and him There is a big gap in previous cognition.

In this city, merchants are regarded as lazy people who do not produce. Although they have brought some convenience to life in the city, at the same time, they are also fed by the rice grains of the farmers.

And those big men in the city, mainly the city lord brother, mostly live a simple life, but they are undoubtedly rich, because all the copper resources in this area are in the hands of the political group headed by the city lord.Therefore, they can choose to live a simple life, but when these people occasionally need luxury, or some people just like to live a luxurious life, as long as they don't make publicity enough to arouse the resentment of the city lord, it doesn't matter.

As for Chen Qiao's family, they were classified into the group of low-status merchants, so they should live here in the future as low-key as possible, and must not have anything to do with profiteering.

The older brother is the city lord, and he doesn't seem to like businessmen very much. To put it bluntly, he just doesn't like how easy some people's money comes.Although their own family's money came quite easily, it is said that their house has a full set of equipment for minting knives and coins.

A few of them discussed it, and thought that the rice grain business in their area was good, but it was better to buy and sell.Since the city lord is opposed to high profits, it is really difficult to grasp the scale of this profit, and they just came here, and they don't know much about many things.Just be honest and sell some strength to make money.

When Baya was grinding the stone mill, Chen Qiao went to Sansu to borrow a space. He wanted to melt the knife he was equipped with and make it into a rotating shaft in the middle of the stone mill.Sansu was also easy to talk to, anyway, their family had a copper smelting place, so they took Chen Qiao there and let him do whatever he wanted.

And Dila needs to make wooden parts. Since they want to do business, they will make a relatively large stone mill this time. It is impossible to always use manpower for such a large stone mill, so they need to add a shelf. Buy a donkey and come back to work.

Lan Jia, who had a big belly, also helped them tidy up the storefront. She and Mai Xi were cleaning the inside and outside of the house. The quilts, sheets, and even pots and pans were all bought for them.Later, Chen Qiao simply gave her a dime and let her be a housekeeper, so he only had some left, which was almost enough.

The appearance of Lan Jia made these men see how convenient it is to have a woman at home, but Chen Qiao has lost her mind. After all, she has been with Baya for several years, and she has always kept Mai Xi and Dila together. Treat him like his own son.Even if there is no relationship with Baya, at least the two of them have treated each other as family members.

The current Chen Qiao is about to be 30 years old, and he has no energy to change what he is used to. After so much, he just wants to live a stable life, even if it is a little harder and monotonous.

It took Baya nearly ten days to make this stone mill. He had done several stone mills in the tribe before, and now that he has experience, he is quite comfortable making stone mills.It was already half a month after they bought the donkey after finishing the stone mill, bought some corn and wheat from the countryside, ground them into fine powder with the stone mill and sold them in the front house.

Because considering the living standard here, they simply help others to process.Grind ten catties and receive one catty.That is to say, if anyone wants to grind ten catties of flour, they have to bring eleven catties of materials to Chen Qiao and the others.

In order to let more people realize the benefits of fine powder, Chen Qiao took advantage of the fact that there was no business in the first two days, set up a table in front of their house to set up a shelf, made some steamed buns and sold them outside. The price was very cheap. A Wowotou is only sold for one ring coin.

Basically, except for the money for cornmeal and firewood, he didn't make any money from this business, and it was a white job.But there was still some reaction. In the afternoon, some women came to him and asked him how to make this wowotou. Chen Qiao didn't hesitate to teach him, one, two, three, four, five, and explained the whole production process clearly to everyone.

In this way, the people in Ailuo City finally found out that the cornmeal was originally made of cornmeal, but the flour had to be finely ground, and Chen Qiao and his family could grind it. Grind out a lot...

Grinding ten catties of flour pays one catty of grain. As long as ordinary people have surplus grain, most people are willing to do so. After all, their original processing methods waste time and waste food. With a mentality, everyone also wants to bring some grain to grind.

Especially the merchants in this city. Although these people are not of high status, their money is always easier to come by than the peasants, so they are naturally much more relaxed about food and drink.Now someone can grind such thin noodles, and the price is still affordable, so fools continue to eat rough noodles.

Recently, Sansu often came to hang around their house, and sometimes he didn't do anything, just sat on the edge and looked at their stone mill. It took an afternoon to see it, which was interesting, and he didn't know what he saw.Chen Qiao and the others are used to it, so they don't pay much attention to him. What to do, just treat him as transparent.

But the third young master of the city lord's family has one thing that is very unpopular, that is, he likes to eat at their house.After working hard all day, it is a very pleasant and warm thing for the family to have a meal together with Lele.

But this third young master just doesn't have the slightest discernment, he is still acquainted, and he doesn't know how to respect the old and love the young.In short, Macy thought that this man had a very bad character, and Baya became angry when he saw this man.

Isn't it?I came early this morning, and everyone is eating breakfast, egg pancakes with polenta.The crispy pancakes are inlaid with green peppers and golden eggs. The most important thing about this pancake is the heat. How to make it crispy on the outside and tender on the inside depends on technology.

"Yo, Sansu, have you had breakfast yet?" Chen Qiao greeted with a smirk all over her face.

"Hey, no." There is no more shameless person in the world than the third young master of the city lord's family.

"Then why don't we eat together." Apart from saying that, does Chen Qiao have any other choices?

"Haha, how can you be so embarrassing." The guy declined, and pointed his paws at the pancakes on the table.Macy's cheeks were puffed out and his eyes were as round as the "bird eggs" at home, but it was a pity that people just pretended not to see it.

"Why are you polite, hehe, let's sit down and eat together." The corners of Chen Qiao's mouth began to cramp.

"No, no, haha, eat it, I'll come over to play later." The guy snatched two pancakes away.

"Oh, that's fine, hehe, come here often." He really didn't want to say the last three words, but this is etiquette, etiquette.

"Enen, take these two pancakes away, haha, Chen Qiao, the pancakes you made are really delicious!" Sansu walked outside while gnawing on the pancakes.

"It's okay, I like to take more." Chen Qiao's words attracted the attention of everyone at the table.

Macy accused him angrily: Dad, what did he take away from me?

Baya didn't dare to criticize Chen Qiao, but his dislike for Sansu had already penetrated into his bone marrow.

Lan Jia glanced at Chen Qiao with a half-smile on his face.

Dilla was still innocent, glanced at his father, then lowered his head and continued to eat.

Chen Qiao was very wronged. In fact, he really didn't want to curry favor with San Su, but he had no choice but to let him be the third young master of the city lord's family when he was under the eaves.

By the way, this Sansu is there.

"Well, this pancake is pretty good, I'll have to come here often some other day..." He muttered as he walked, but unexpectedly, the pancake was snatched away within two steps of leaving Chen Qiao's house.

"Ah San, how can you eat alone? Brother, I have been eyeing this family for a long time, but unfortunately I don't know them well, hehe..." A tall young man who was fooling around held the two pieces of pancakes in his hand, and smiled. Sansu said.

"If you love to eat, go in and go with others, don't snatch mine!" Sansu stretched out her hand and was about to snatch it.

"Hey, isn't this embarrassing." The tall man took a bite of the stolen pancake while speaking.

"Hey, boy, neither of us has eaten such a big bite!" The other two young people beside him were dissatisfied.

"Well... it's gone, why don't you leave me a bite? My pancakes... I got two of them with all my shame, you guys!"
